Buckrock101 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 wooooow, big if true. can't say I'm not excited about another weight class, more belts mean more title fights and I'm happy with that. would also mean 100% than Conor's going to get that shot next if he beats Khabib. maybe even if he loses, too.

Buckrock101 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 got everyone else on twitter saying 165 is not true, although it kinda feels like a matter of time. even if it doesn't happen for this fight, all the fighters want the division, and more belts means more money for the UFC. just makes sense for them to do it for 230. rather than putting Weidman-Rockhold as the interim 205 belt or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 I bet Dana is pissed because the UFC didnt officially break it and that's why he's denying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also heard something about One wanting to expand into Japan next year, and wanting Eddie to spearhead that push, since he's got a history in Japan. Alvarez vs Aoki 3 would be a huge fight for them to launch in Japan with. Still kind of crazy though. I feel like Eddie just got here.

That should be an interesting fight. I'd be excited to see Gastelum fight at 175. He should be able to make that fairly easily...but we've burned by "easy" weight cuts before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaguarCrazy2832 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 I love that Diamond/Diaz broke this both and the UFC is denying it. Uncle Dana's head is spinning and denying anything which will look pitiful if he does announce it soon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayRaider Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Kevin Lee is way better than anyone Khabib has beaten. Easily the 4th best guy in the division. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckrock101 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 apparently they're thinking about Gus vs Yoel for either the interim 205 title or the full 205 title for MSG. Kinda funny, since I thought Yoel was injured and that's why he couldn't fight Costa... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gusty can keep him at range but Yoel has serious power. Just gotta hope fighting at 205 means he wont be gassed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just gotta hope fighting at 205 means he wont be gassed He's over 40 and has a huge amount of muscle mass, I don't think his cardio will improve. I think he only fights if it's for the belt, and that makes sense as to why he would decline Costa but accept the fight with Gus. He doesn't have many fights left.
